The show will mark the legendary New York Dolls' first performance on U.S. soil following their reformation at the Meltdown Festival in the UK. Truly an "international" event, the show will feature the best garage bands from around the globe, including Denmark's Raveonettes, England's The Contrast, Norway's Cocktail Slippers, Canadians The High Dials and The Chains, and Finland's Flaming Sideburns. In keeping with Little Steven's ongoing mission to bring rock 'n' roll to the masses, advance tickets for the day-long concert are just $20, with $25 tickets available for purchase on the day of the show. Tickets go on sale Friday, June 25 through Ticketmaster (212-307-7171, www.ticketmaster.com and all locations). Little Steven's International Underground Garage Festival, presented by Dunkin' Donuts: WHO: Iggy Pop & The Stooges, The Strokes, The New York Dolls, The Pretty Things, Bo Diddley, The Raveonettes, The Mooney Suzuki, The Romantics, The Chesterfield Kings, The Fuzztones, The Electric Prunes, and more. WHAT: Non-stop garage rock WHERE: Randall's Island, New York City WHEN: August 14, 2004 Also among the performers will be the winner of Little Steven and Dunkin' Donuts' Underground Garage Battle of the Bands. On July 23rd at New York City's Irving Plaza, eleven of the country's best unsigned garage bands, each winners of regional battles in Boston, Providence, Philadelphia, Miami, Washington DC, Chicago, Cleveland, Long Island and Asbury Park NJ, will go head-to-head for the chance to perform on the Dunkin' Donuts main stage at the festival. Melding the ethos of Little Steven's smash hit radio show "Little Steven's Undergound Garage" with the atmosphere and non-stop style of Alan Freed's Moondog Coronation Ball, the festival will feature a unique stage and effects designed by legendary Pink Floyd designer Mark Brickman. Among other groundbreaking achievements, the show aims to set the world record for most go-go dancers appearing in one show. The festival takes Little Steven's revolution and partnership with Dunkin' Donuts to a new level. His radio show, which is sponsored by Dunkin' Donuts, airs weekly on 132 stations across North America and in more than 40 countries around the world. It has been instrumental in exposing new artists and bringing the sounds of raw rock 'n' roll to a mass audience (nearly a million listeners in North America each week.) Bringing choice and personality back to radio, "Underground Garage" has inspired new formats and stations across the country, in addition to a forthcoming "Underground Garage" channel on SIRIUS satellite radio. With the International Underground Garage Festival, Steven and Dunkin' Donuts promise to make the same impact on the concert industry. Founded in 1950, Dunkin' Donuts is the number one retailer of coffee-by-the-cup in America, selling 2.7 million cups a day, nearly one billion cups a year. Dunkin' Donuts is also the largest coffee and baked goods chain in the world and sells more donuts, coffee, bagels and muffins than any other quick service restaurant in America. Dunkin' Donuts has more than 5,800 stores in the United States and 29 other countries. Based in Randolph, MA, Dunkin' Donuts is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Allied Domecq PLC.

On April 7, 2002, the same date in 1967 that Tom Donahue kicked off "progressive FM radio" on KMPX in San Francisco, Steven Van Zandt's Little Steven's Underground Garage had its inaugural broadcast. Being the "coolest D.J. in the country" is just the latest chapter in a long and distinguished musical career for Van Zandt. He is an acclaimed record producer for artists such as Bruce Springsteen, Southside Johnny and the Asbury Jukes, Artists United Against Apartheid, Darlene Love, Lone Justice, Gary U.S. Bonds, Michael Monroe, Lords of the New Church and the Arc Angels. A gifted songwriter, he has written songs for artists including Jimmy Cliff, Southside Johnny, Gary U.S. Bonds, Brian Setzer, and Darlene Love. In addition, Steven is a well-known musician in his own right, performing as a founding member of Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band as well as with his own band Little Steven and the Disciples of Soul. 1.

  • MUSIC 351: Psychedelic Rock of the 1960S Spring 2015, T 7:00–9:40 P.M., ENS-280
    MUSIC 351: Psychedelic Rock of the 1960s Spring 2015, T 7:00–9:40 p.m., ENS-280 Instructor: Eric Smigel ([email protected]) M-235, office hours: Mondays & Tuesdays, 3:00–4:00 p.m. This is a lecture class that surveys psychedelic rock music and culture of the 1960s. Psychedelic music played an important role in the development of rock music as a predominant art form during one of the most formative decades in American history. Emerging along with the powerful counterculture of hippies in the mid-1960s, psychedelic rock reflects key elements of the “Love Generation,” including the peace movement, the sexual revolution, the pervasive use of recreational drugs (especially marijuana and LSD), and the growing awareness of Eastern philosophy. The main centers of countercultural activity—the Haight-Ashbury district of San Francisco and the London Underground—drew a high volume of media exposure, resulting in the famous “Summer of Love” and culminating in popular music festivals in Monterey, Woodstock, and Altamont. Students in this course will examine the music and lyrics of a selection of representative songs by The Grateful Dead, The Jefferson Airplane, Big Brother and the Holding Company, The Beatles, Pink Floyd, The Jimi Hendrix Experience, and other bands closely associated with the burgeoning psychedelic scene. Students will also consult primary source material—including interviews with several of the musicians, influential literature of the period, and essays by key figures of the movement—in order to gain insight into the social, political,

  • The Record Plant: Magical Seeds
    CHAPTER 11 The Record Plant: Magical Seeds Halloween Masquerade Ball Studio Opening Dancing BYOD October 29 6 p.m. to 2 a.m. RSVP 415-332-2755 In the fall of 1972, the who’s who of the music business in L.A., New York, San Francisco, and beyond received this invitation on a slab of California redwood from Chris Stone and Gary Kellgren, owners of ! e Record Plant studios in Sausalito, California. John Lennon and Yoko Ono showed up dressed as trees, their presence a clear indication of the level of clientele ! e Record Plant’s Northern California outpost (they also helped launch ! e Record Plant’s L.A. and New York facilities) would attract. As the grand-opening bash raged through Sunday morning, word spread fast that this new stu- dio across the Bay was a party getaway for the rich and famous. 110 Chapter 11 The Record Plant: Magical Seeds With its Jacuzzi, guest houses, organic chefs, and rooms with waterbed fl oors—not to mention the laughing gas masks hanging from one control room ceiling and two fake walls leading to an escape route in case of a drug bust—! e Record Plant refl ected the excess of the times in grand, glitzy L.A. style. It also brought to San Francisco one of the industry’s fi rst “resort” studios: one that would off er good equipment and better times. It was one of the fi rst inde- pendently owned studios in town with the cache to bring in top-tier talent. At Sausalito’s “living room” studio, clients could take an extended vacation from label-town recording, stay in a beautiful city, and record in a high-end studio that off ered as many or more perks as a four-star hotel.

  • Understanding ‗It': Affective Authenticity, Space, and the Phish
    Understanding ‗It‘: Affective Authenticity, Space, and the Phish Scene By C2010 Elizabeth Anne Yeager Submitted to the graduate degree program in American Studies and the Graduate Faculty of the University of Kansas in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. ________________________________ Chairperson, Sherrie J. Tucker ________________________________ Ben Chappell ________________________________ Henry Bial ________________________________ Eric Weisbard ________________________________ Nicole Hodges Persley Date Defended: December 14, 2010 ii The Dissertation Committee for Elizabeth Anne Yeager certifies that this is the approved version of the following dissertation: Understanding ‗It‘: Affective Authenticity, Space, and the Phish Scene ________________________________ Chairperson, Sherrie J. Tucker Date approved: April 18, 2011 iii Abstract ―Understanding It: Affective Authenticity, Space, and the Phish Scene‖ is an ethnographic study of ―scene identity‖ around the contemporary rock band Phish. Utilizing data generated from six years of ethnographic fieldwork, including over one hundred and fifty interviews with Phish scene participants, this project explores how the production of space at Phish shows works to form a Phish scene identity. I contend that the identity of the Phish scene, what the band members and fans refer to as ―it‖ and I call a spatial articulation of affective authenticity, is produced and formed by scene members themselves, drawing from the interrelations between the production of space (practices that create a specific environment) at shows and a white, middle and upper-middle class cultural memory of the Grateful Dead scene. I situate this process amidst a cultural backdrop of 1980s and 1990s identity politics and in particular, multiculturalism and suggest that Phish scene identity be analyzed as a middle class performance of resistance that achieves community and meaning without resisting class privilege.

  • The Civics of Rock: Sixties Countercultural Music and The
    THE CIVICS OF ROCK: SIXTIES COUNTERCULTURAL MUSIC AND THE TRANSFORMATION OF THE PUBLIC SPHERE by Michael Jacob Kramer A dissertation submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of History. Chapel Hill 2006 Approved by Advisor: John F. Kasson Reader: Robert Cantwell Reader: Peter Filene Reader: Lawrence Grossberg Reader: Jacquelyn Hall © 2006 Michael Jacob Kramer ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT MICHAEL KRAMER: The Civics of Rock: Sixties Countercultural Music and the Transformation of the Public Sphere (Under the direction of Professor John F. Kasson) For the counterculture of the 1960s and 70s, rock music was not only mass entertainment, but also a form of public life. While many scholars have argued that rock was incompatible with civic participation, this book claims that in music scenes such as San Francisco, in poster art and dancing, on the radio and in print publications, rock served as a flash point for dilemmas of citizenship and civil society. As frequently as it deteriorated into escapism and hedonism, rock also created an atmosphere of inquiry in which the young might listen, think, move, and feel their way through issues of public and civic interaction, such as identity, belonging, power, and democracy. Even when exported by the American military to Vietnam or when circulating to youth movements worldwide, far from eclipsing public life, rock music transformed it into a mass-mediated mode of association

  • The Potentially Bright Future of Radio: an Analysis of Interviews From
    Running head: THE POTENTIALLY BRIGHT FUTURE OF RADIO The Potentially Bright Future of Radio: An Analysis of Interviews from Radio Professionals Regarding Radio's Past, Present and Future A Thesis submitted to Southern Utah University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Professional Communication May 2014 By Shawn L. Denevan Thesis Committee: Dr. Arthur Challis, Ed.D, Chair Dr. L. Paul Husselbee, Ph.D Dr. Matthew H. Barton, Ph.D ` THE POTENTIALLY BRIGHT FUTURE OF RADIO ii The Potentially Bright Future of Radio: An Analysis of Interviews from Radio Professionals Regarding Radio's Past, Present and Future Shawn Lee Denevan Dr. Arthur Challis, Thesis Supervisor Abstract Speculation regarding the viability of radio's future presents itself whenever a new audio medium is put forward as a possible competitor to radio. From TV, FM radio, CDs, cassettes, Satellite radio and now Internet radio, AM/FM terrestrial radio has been predicted to "die" at the hand of these competitors numerous times since radio's inception. The Telecommunications Act of 1996 changed the way radio operated as a business. Technology has changed the way radio stations program content. The Internet has provided new audio competition for radio. This study examines the role of the Telecommunications Act of 1996, changes in content and programming, and technology that continues to affect the way radio is perceived as a business and as a medium. An analysis of interviews from radio professionals—whose careers in the radio business may span from before the Telecommunications Act of 1996 to the present, and who have the insight and knowledge to discuss the strengths and weaknesses of radio's past and present—suggests that radio has a bright future if radio can return, in portion, to its past programming ideals of being live, local, and relevant to the communities it serves.

  • Tom Donahue Used to Open His Show with a Rumbling but Somehow Friendly Warning: “I’M Here to Mess up Your Mind and Clear up Your Face.” He Did That, and More
    In that basso profundo of his that made teenage listeners think of Top 40 DJs as gods, “Big Daddy” Tom Donahue used to open his show with a rumbling but somehow friendly warning: “I’m here to mess up your mind and clear up your face.” He did that, and more. He wound up changing the face - and sound - of radio itself. It was Donahue who was most responsible for free-form radio and for the album-oriented format into which it ultimately evolved, and it was the success of his stations and their brethren elsewhere that jolted FM radio into commercial life in the late ’60s. In the early part of the ’60s, radio was cut and dried: The grown-ups lis­ tened mostly to the middle-of-the-road format - pop hits and standards. And for teenagers there was Top 40 - a rock & roll hit parade hosted by screaming DJs. The jocks showed up at high schools for sock hops, at teen fairs or on local TV dance shows, hoping for the big time. Tom Donahue didn’t want that kind of big time. He wanted something bigger. Born in South Bend, Ind., in 1928, he was raised in Washington, D.C. His first wife, Grace, recalled that he was trying to decide on a career when he was 19. “He wanted to think of a profession,” she said, “where he could make the greatest amount of money with the least amount of work.” So, of course, he became a disc jockey. He began in Charleston, W.Va., with a show called Uncle Tom’s Gabbin’.
